Dvcpro hd codec download final cut pro

Marianna: Calibrated works Is Calibrated or Raylight preferable? Or will the Avid Codecs PE work for free? Call me a dummy, but I don't know where to find this?

Thanks, Adman. I found it and ran the install program, but I still get the white screen no codec when I import the file. I would have thought, with FCP becoming so popular, this would be something that comes up all the time, but a search of the forum and web-at-large yields no concensus solution.

Next, I'll try the pay-to-play third party codecs I have used it in the past. Reply Contact. MC Mac Pro, 64GB Ram. But the good news is that your guy's Final Cut Pro license allows him to install the software on both his desktop and his laptop system.

It's in the fine print somewhere. I think the license says something about how you aren't supposed to use both installations at the same time, but I could be mis-remembering that. So the solution is just to take the Final Cut Pro software he already has and install it on his laptop. It's totally within the letter and spirit of the license. Reply Quote. Well the problem here is that he is a shooter, and doesn't edit. He does not own FCP. Andrew Kines. It won't convert clips or anything but it will verify.

And it's free. I guess I'm not seeing the irony. If Focus doesn't make clear on the Firestore box or whatever that you need Final Cut Pro installed to play back DVCPRO HD recordings in Quicktime format, then that's Focus' problem, and your friend should simply return the device, since he doesn't meet the requirements for using it. There might be a P2 viewer out there that works on obsolete hardware, but I'm not aware of one myself. Apple shipped the last PowerPC-based Mac more than three years ago.

Clinging to unsupported, end-of-lifed hardware is counter-productive, because it wastes time and effort and any success you happen to have along the way is a dead end. It's really time to move on. Well I am not sure that Focus can be blamed here.

They do what they do just fine. They make file based recordings in the DVCPro codec. To return the thing seems a bit extreme, no? User profile for user: Matthew Connolly3 Matthew Connolly3.

As far as I understand, it is included in Final Cut Studio. Is it available as a separate download? If not, why not? Paying for a whole package of programs for just one component is ridiculous. More Less. Reply I have this question too 14 I have this question too Me too 14 Me too.

The aspect ratio and frame size of the resulting self contained movie is incorrect and therefore requires render when brought back in a native DVCPRO HD sequence - even the same sequence the movie was exported from. For some of us, this is a big issue. Each re-render takes up to 2 hours per hour show.

In our case, we are currently in post on a 13 part History Channel series, 1 two-hour documentary, 3 one-hour Biography Channel programs, 2 one-hour documentary specials and 1 two-hour History Channel documentary special. Without mentioning the concern on what the re-renders are doing to the visual integrity of the programs.

It's a fair question, especially since the release of the very promising Apple ProRes codec. Our reasons are simple:. Why the need for exporting self contained and reimporting them?
